Chapter 147 Jennifer lowered her gaze slightly and answered weakly, âYes, Iâm done...
However, Oneida was not looking at her anymore.
A dead silence ensued.
No one spoke up.
Everyone was waiting for Oneidaâs response.
Jennifer balled her hands into fists. There was a trace of resentment in her eyes.
Jennifer stared at Oneidaâs calm side profile as anger rose within her.
âDid Oneida do this to humiliate me? Iâve already apologized to her properly. What more does she want from me?â she pondered.
Oneida seemed to have sensed Jenniferâs thoughts. She suddenly turned around, her gaze chilling.
She uttered slowly, âIf an apology is enough, what do we need the police for?â
Jenniferâs face stiffened at the remark.
However, Oneida continued, âI donât accept your apology.â
âOneida, whatâs with your attitude?â On the side, Tatiana glared at her furiously and snapped, âWhat more do you want from Jenn?â
Jennifer bit her lip hard, looking pitiful and about to faint at any moment.
Oneida looked at them with an amused look. Nevertheless, her gaze was extremely icy. âYou guys can apologize all you want. Itâs up to me whether to accept it or not. Instead of being forgiven, Jennifer should feel ashamed for the rest of her life!â
After saying that, Oneida walked past the two women and went to the other side of the hall without looking back.
Just then, a tall figure suddenly appeared at the door.
âMr. Faraday is here!â the servant yelled.
The person who entered the mansion was none other than Christopher.
After seeing Christopher, the disgruntled Jennifer suddenly beamed with excitement. âChristopher!â
A bright smile bloomed on her face as she rushed to Christopher, âWhat brings you here?â
However, the man in front of Jennifer didnât spare her a glance.
Jennifer was taken aback by his lack of response. Her joy seemed to be shortâlived.
The Christopher in front of her remained unchanged in terms of appearance and facial features. Nonetheless, he exuded an unfamiliar aura at that moment.
Christopher looked indifferent, menacing, cold, and imposing.
Most importantly, he didnât look at Jennifer at all.
âIs he still my Christopher?â she mused.
âChristopher...â Jennifer subconsciously grabbed Christopherâs arm and looked at him tearfully. She wanted to tattle on Oneida. âJust now, I apologized to Oneida, but she-â
Jenniferâs body froze when she was halfway through her words.
That was because Christopher shook off her arm unexpectedly.
He was cold and mean.
âChristopher...â Jennifer stared at him in disbelief.
1/3 Chapter 147 Nevertheless, Christopher treated Jennifer as if she was invisible and looked straight at Oneida not far away.
In his eyes, there was only Oneida.
Oneida naturally also noticed Christopherâs gaze.
His gaze was deep, gentle, passionate, painful, and focused.
Oneida couldnât help but feel surprised.
She mused, âWhy is he looking at me like that? It was such a deep and conflicted gaze...
An inexplicable feeling of embarrassment rose within Oneida.
She looked away awkwardly and said goodbye to Lucas and Edmund, âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâll take my leave first.â
Lucas nodded and looked at her tenderly. âIf you want to go, I wonât ask you to stay... You can come back anytime if you want to return in the future...â
However, Edmund was a little reluctant to see Oneida go. He fixed his gaze on his elder sister, looking a bit depressed. âOneida, remember to come back often in the future.â
Oneida nodded with a smile.
Then, she walked straight out of the hall of the mansion.
The next second, Christopher, who had just arrived, left the crowd behind and ran out after Oneida.
âChristopher!â Jennifer let out a piercing scream behind him.
Much to Jenniferâs dismay, the man didnât look back at her the entire time.
Realization dawned on Jennifer at that moment.
Something seemed to have changed between her and Christopher.
After getting into the car, Oneida started the engine skillfully, and the car sped away.
In the rearview mirror, Oneida saw Christopher walk out of the mansion in a hurry before getting into his Maybach. Then, he followed her car.
âWhy is he following me?â she wondered.
Oneida narrowed her eyes slightly. She couldnât help but speed up.
However, Christopher was still following her when she drove to the vicinity of Garrison Mansion.
He was determined to follow her.
Oneida directly pulled up her car.
She opened the door and got out of the car.
Seeing that, Christopher also stepped out of his car.
The two of them stared at each other from a reasonable distance.
Oneida frowned slightly.
All of a sudden, she felt like she couldnât see through Christopher.
âWhat the hell is this guy trying to do?â she pondered.
While Oneida was lost in thought, Christopher suddenly walked up to her.
âIda,â he called her name in a low voice, and his eyes were as deep as the ocean.
Christopher didnât understand why everything had changed in this life.
Oneida no longer liked him and stopped pursuing him. If anything, she was even hostile toward him.
2/3 3/3 D Chapter 147 She even married Jackson.
This was something that had never happened in his previous life.
Christopher contemplated, âCould it be that my rebirth actually triggered a series of butterfly effects, resulting in a change in the trajectory of my previous life? Or perhaps this is divine retribution?â
In his previous life, he personally pushed Oneida aside, causing her to die.
Therefore, he had to be the one to pursue Oneida in this life.
Oneida stared at Christopher in front of her. A strong feeling of discomfort rose within her.
She didnât like the way he was looking at her.
âWhat on earth do you want?â Oneida probed coldly, looking at him with an icy gaze.
Christopher didnât say anything. Instead, he grabbed Oneidaâs wrist.
Oneida was caught off guard by him. Her heart trembled slightly.
He took her palm and pressed it to his handsome face. âSlap me, Ida. You can slap me as many times as you want. My face is right here. Go ahead and slap me.â
Suddenly, Oneida had a faraway look in her eyes.
âWhy did Christopher suddenly become so strange? Did he lose his wits after I slapped him last time? How can someone suddenly appear and asked another person to slap him?â she wondered.
Oneida narrowed her eyes and enunciated each word slowly, âLet go of me.â
âI wonât let go,â Christopher replied stubbornly. âIf I let go this time, I may not have another chance.â
He squeezed Oneidaâs palm and looked at her deeply. âIf you donât want to slap me, you can hit me somewhere else. You can hit me wherever you want. I promise not to make a sound.â
Christopher was not joking with Oneida. He really wanted Oneida to beat him up.
âI was the one who had wronged her in my previous life. Therefore, I deserved to be beaten. I also deserved to die!â Christopher chastised himself inwardly.
However, he was still reluctant to die.
That was because Oneida was still alive and standing in front of him.
Everything felt like a dream for him.
Christopher felt heartbroken yet blissful when he looked at her.

ï¤The Second Act 146 âHow could I die willingly when I havenât seen enough of her?â he pondered.
âGo ahead and hit me, Ida.â Christopher looked intently at Oneida as if he was gazing at a treasure.
